Yesterday at work, we had a little meeting about "interrupts" and their usage in microprocessors. During the meeting, there was an unintentional demonstration of an in-real-life interrupt: somebody came in and told us that the roof had started leaking water into one of the rooms where our important equipment was located. So, we had to stop the meeting and cover the machinery with protective plastic sheets. We had determined that this water was from the snow that was melting on the roof, so Suren, Mikayel, Gevork and I went up on the roof to shovel the snow off of there. We took turns because there was only one rope (one person could be tied to each end of it), and two shovels. Finally, Suren attached a sheet of metal under the roof to divert the flow of the water, preventing further leakage into the building. He told me afterwards "the rope is just for decoration, it wouldnt have supported any of our weights". Hopefully he was just joking about that.
